Events and workshops
Start your day: Coffee with the Creatives
Begin your day with an informal networking session – a relaxed coffee morning with the production team behind The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical.
You’ll meet professionals from across the production and get insider insight into how a large-scale musical makes it to the stage. It’s a unique chance to ask questions, make connections, and learn what it’s really like to work in the industry.
Afternoon Workshops: Develop Your Practice
Choose from three hands-on sessions focused on core musical theatre skills. Whether you’re building on existing experience or trying something new, these workshops will give you practical tools, creative inspiration, and a space to grow.
- 12 – 1.30pm
Co-creating Musicals with Lydia Davidson - 2 – 4pm
Writing for Musical Theatre with Andy McGregor - 4.30 – 6pm
Dance with Chris Stuart Wilson
Attend just one or stay for the whole day – it’s flexible, affordable, and made for young creatives like you.
